Memorial Day Cruise

Our family needed a place to stay 1 day ahead of our cruise. This was the perfect venue! It’s tiny, but mighty. Everything is decorated well and makes use of the space. Their is a twin and full sized bunk bed that my 6 and 3 year old loved. The shower is hot, and was perfect after walking from the beach. I loved that we could use the washer and dryer to clean our clothes before packing them again on our trip. It’s close to Pleasure Pier and the Strand, so there are fun food options 5 min drive. You can also walk to restaurants that are right by the beach. We aren’t stressed about getting to the embarkation port and parking 6 minutes drive.

I liked that the bed was comfortable and was able to cook and wash. I hated that the other vacation house was parking in our parking spot on the street. There was another vacation houses next to ours. I had to see if they would move. Nothing was labeled outside who parking our trash cans because they would use both trash cans and fill them up. They have party outside past midnight. The master bathroom light needs to be fixed.

Book if you don't mind fleas, yes, FLEAS !!

I can tolerate a lot from a rental, but the condition of this tiny home made our stay uncomfortable. We would have booked elsewhere, but with all the events going on in Galveston, there was nothing available that was reasonable or in a safe area. One positive note, the home is tastefully decorated. However, the structure is suffering from poor maintenance and obvious flood damage. The worst part is that Vacasa (the management company) did nothing but reply with pacification texts to all the issues we informed them of during our stay without resolving a single one. Here are just a few of the more serious issues: 1). Fleas in the master bath, 2). Master bath light fixture was detached, hanging, and didn't work, 3). The home was not cleaned or restocked prior to our arrival nor after informing Vacasa. There were many more issues involving cleanliness, but I'm saving them for the extremely negative review I'll be posting with Vacasa. We will never rent another property associated with Vacasa and are quite disappointed that Vrbo’s vetting process isn’t more thorough. In the end, my family is still out for the cost of the rental and can only hope others take heed of this review.

Beach Walk Away with Fido

Perfect location to walk to the beach. We took a wagon for our chairs and snacks. Husband walked the dog on the beach each morning, and sometimes in the evening. It said room for two cars, but we only saw room for one. Would stay there again. Perfect price!

VRBO - VACASA is the worst

24/7 support is not true. You call, you're on hold. Eternal hold. No one will pick up. You use the VACASA chat, no one will respond. The rental rate charged was fine for x 3 nights. I feel gouged by VRBO - VACASA with: Additional Fees added on top: equal to the 3 nights costs in Service Fees from VRBO. Don't forget tax on the sum. Be aware of the expenses when you add in VRBO - VACASA fees. That total is due (charged to your CC) when booked, not when you stay. Nice house, great a/c, clean and would love to visit again, but with a poorly run and excessive fee property management.

Horrible!

Do not book with this company or house horrible costumer service I called the first day I got to the house it was so hot! It felt like 90 in there the guy that answer my call was rude and hardly wanted to help me he apparently told me someone was going to go check it out I stayed there for 2 nights no one ever showed up they don’t reply back but yet they want to take your money they charge hidden fees so be aware of that! So please do yourself a favor an stay away. Worst experience ever.

Great Location

Great location, 3 blocks from the seawall on the east end. A short drive to downtown. Was nice having a second bathroom and no connected neighbors like you would have at a condo or hotel. Having a washer and dryer was awesome.
